    This Day in Gaming, March 18th

    1998: Atari is awarded a patent for their force feedback steering technology, which means Sega had to negotiate for the license in all of its arcade games using said force feedback. Atari owns the patent rights until 2010 after which point Sega will be like, "Boooya!"

    2004: Nintendo releases The Legend of Zelda: Four Swords Adventures for Gamecube in Japan. I want to play this game with my Wii and DS...what ever happened to all that Wi-Fi compatibility we were suppose to see? Mark Wilson
